    Prothane Suspension Bushings

    8-401 - 12.39
    rear lower control arm bushing kit
    8-312 - 58.39
    front lower control arm bushing kit

    No dont buy the rear lower kit from anywhere. It is for a 4g and dosent fit our cars. It dosent matter where you buy it.

    Thats what i was lookng for last night here at work actually.

    Just food for thought in my research I think the early civic/crx LCA are the same as ours. The rockauto beckarnley number is like one digit off and the pictures I have looked at they look the same. I contacted Progress about the spherical bearings they list for the civics but I havent heard anything back and they dont answer there phone.

    Re: Prothane Suspension Bushings

    Just like legend said don't buy the lower-c rear, they don't fit. I can't remember how may thousandths of an inch there off. Hey Legend did you think about widening the opening of the c-arms. I havent gotten around to trying it but when i get back i'm gonna get some more rear lower-c arms and test it out.

    I thought aobut it, but it seems as thou there will be a problem in the long run with that. What I did notice and I think I said this in another thread. Is that those bushing will replace the rear lower strut mount bushing, but you will be left with 6 unused bushings. I might get them pressed in and sell the rest on here.

    Sounds good, but we need a bigger turnout like that cali guys always get . I will let you know about the bushing after I have them installed.
